CopperCorp Delivers Additional High-Grade Copper Intercepts at Jukes, including 13m @ 2.01% CuEq
CopperCorp hits high-grade copper-gold at Jukes as Tasmania exploration gains momentum
The most recent news (March 10, 2026) reports Phase 2 drilling results from the Jukes prospect at the 100% owned Razorback property in Tasmania. Key intercepts include JDD007, which returned 36.0m @ 0.64% CuEq from 66m (near-surface) and a deeper high-grade zone of 13.0m @ 2.01% CuEq (1.18% Cu, 1.14g/t Au) from 205.0m. The drilling confirms mineralization over a 350m strike length and to depths exceeding 500m. Mineralization remains open in all directions.
The news is categorized as Routine - Positive. While the grades are high (2.01% CuEq), they are incremental and follow a series of positive results from late 2025 and early 2026. - Consistency: The results align with the company’s thesis that Jukes hosts a structurally controlled Cu-Au system similar to the nearby Mt Lyell mine. - Scale: Confirming 350m of strike and 500m depth is a positive step toward defining a resource, but it does not yet represent a "discovery" of a tier-one system. - Operational Continuity: The commencement of JDD008 shows the program is moving at a steady pace, supported by the $2.5M raised in mid-2025. - Risk Mitigation: The use of historical adit resampling to verify data adds a layer of technical due diligence.
CopperCorp is a junior explorer focused on copper-gold systems in western Tasmania, Australia. Its flagship is the Razorback Property, which contains the Jukes and Hydes prospects. The project is located 10-15km from the historic Mt Lyell mine (3Mt Cu, 3Moz Au). The company aims to discover a large-scale, vertically extensive system using modern geophysics to test targets that were overlooked or under-drilled by historical operators.
